@ThomasSowell She and tjise that say such things are simply saying they would not even dream of doing manual labor. There basic error is they believe the rest of us white folks are equally ridiculous and condescending as they seem to be.

Woman: “White people have never built their own houses, farm their own farms, worked manual labor in the history of the US." What?

@newstart_2024 This situation has been quite clear fir done years already. The question we should be tackling is how do we get out of this ideological quagmire?

Truth is now considered a right-wing conspiracy. That’s the chilling line from Melanie Phillips that stopped me in my tracks. She explains how we’ve reached a point where simply stating observable reality — whether it’s basic biology defining a woman or pushing back against blanket accusations that all white people are inherently bad — gets you branded as evil. Not wrong. Evil. Therefore you must be silenced, cancelled, or erased. No debate. No evidence allowed. She calls it cultural totalitarianism: a Manichean worldview where one ideology claims a monopoly on goodness, progress, and reason itself. Dissent isn’t argued with — it’s treated as a moral threat that has to be removed. The deepest irony? In an era that smugly ditched religion in the name of superior rationality, we’ve ended up rejecting reason, evidence, and open inquiry altogether. We’re so “rational” we’ve dispensed with the very tools of rationality. It doesn’t add up. Her take has me wondering how we got here — and how quickly disagreement turned into moral excommunication. Anyone else seeing this pattern play out in conversations lately? Where have you felt truth itself become off-limits?

@elonmusk Project management 101.....plus the balls to take risks!

Indeed, it was *because* I was not from the aerospace industry that SpaceX made such radical breakthroughs. Same for Tesla. Those in the industry would have if they could have.

Apparently your dolution simply involves getting together to talk ad nauseum about an obvious, open issue. Screw the inquiry....send the police in to do their jobs. These are criminsl gangs....stop talking! But, the reality is you are more concerned about politics....just disingenuous and cowardly.

The grooming gangs’ scandal is one of the darkest moments in our country’s history. The independent national Inquiry will now begin its crucial work to uncover how these crimes were allowed to happen and root out failure wherever it occurred. There will be no hiding place for the predatory monsters who committed these vile crimes.

It’s not “history”, Shabana. I’m from Telford. I was groomed and abused by different men from the age of 5. I’ve seen countless little girls victimised by Pakistani-Muslim grooming gangs in my hometown. IT’S STILL GOING ON. I went on national TV to say that little girls are still being raped and tortured by Pakistani-Muslim gangs. The next day, the police came banging on my door to threaten me into silence for speaking out. Growing up, we knew which takeaways were dodgy, which taxi companies were controlled by the Pakistani-Muslim gangs, which estates and high streets not to walk through alone or avoid altogether. It’s an open secret. And your government is complicit. It is still happening in towns and cities across the UK. Little girls are being subjected to the worst abuse imaginable, at the hands of men who know they can get away with it. Nothing has changed. You are still turning a blind eye despite decades of undeniable evidence. Politicians like you are trying to sweep the scandal under the carpet, sabotaging the National Inquiry at every turn so that they can save their own skins. And little girls are still being sacrificed at the altar of multiculturalism and traded for votes. Decades later. The same old story. You may not have shoved little girls into taxis or plied them with vapes himself, but you and your entire government are just as guilty as if you had. And I, for one, refuse to be silenced or placated by the very people who have spent decades discrediting victims and survivors like me.

@MorEdge_Insight He has never been considered the sharpest tool in the shed....bit of a donkey, by all accounts....not least, as evidenced by that speech.

Watch this. It is an actual speech given by Charles. When you listen to the words, everything you see happening today in Britain, and Europe, will make sense. “Islam is part of our past and present, in all fields of human endeavour. It has helped to create modern Europe. It is part of our own inheritance, not a thing apart… Islam can teach us today a way of understanding and living in the world which Christianity itself is the poorer for having lost... The fact is that way of life, our western materialism, can be offensive to devout Muslims, and I don’t mean just the extremists. We must realize that we bear responsibility.” Prince Charles (now King Charles III) at the Sheldonian Theatre, Oxford, on 27 October 1993. If you want to know the true cause of the Islamic conquest of Britain, the deranged liberal leftist mindset, and worse yet, the total surrender of Britain to the Islamists, this is it. Makes me sick.

TV reporter tells David Bowie the internet is "hugely exaggerated" David Bowie's response is the closest thing to perfection about the future.

These dear people suffer while the world ignores them. It fills me with rage. There is a God. And one day He will judge not only those who committed this violence, but also those who assisted it, and those who did nothing.

Peter Thiel just compressed forty years of American decline into one sentence. Thiel: “Silicon Valley deals in the world of bits; most of the economy is the world of atoms.” For four decades, the most talented engineers alive funneled into a single corridor. Computers. Software. Mobile. Internet. Not because the physical world ran out of problems. Because solving them became illegal. Thiel: “It was a bad idea to become an aerospace engineer. These were all industries that were sort of in structural decline because they were getting outlawed, they were getting regulated to death.” Nuclear. Chemical. Mechanical. Aerospace. Field after field, regulated into silence before a generation of builders ever arrived. Thiel: “Computer science was the only sort of scientific, technical field that actually had a future in the 1980s.” So the builders went where building was still allowed. The physical world paid in decades. Founders Fund: “We wanted flying cars. Instead we got 140 characters.” That is not satire. That is the ledger. Now AI is forcing the reckoning no one scheduled. The intelligence being built inside data centers does not stay inside data centers. It moves into manufacturing. Into energy. Into aerospace. Into every domain that was locked and left to decay. That gap is closing. Faster than most institutions can process. America fills it. Or cedes it.

In 1957, Carl Jung wrote: "Everywhere in the West there are subversive minorities who, sheltered by our humanitarianism and our sense of justice, hold the incendiary torches ready, with nothing to stop the spread of their ideas." Jung believed only a small “mentally stable” portion of the population keeps things together. His estimate was that only ~40% are psychologically grounded. The rest are one bad day away from breakdown. The point he was making is that most people are not rational. Their emotions possess them and when the pressure gets high enough: - Logic stops working. - Slogans take over. - Fantasy replaces reality. That’s when societies starts feeling like its upside down. Jung called it a “psychic epidemic.” A kind of mass psychological contagion. He estimated that for every crazy person you see, there are ten more that are able to mask their perversity just enough to fit in to society. While they may not break out openly, their "views and behaviour, for all their appearance of normality, are influenced by unconsciously morbid and perverse factors." In that state, irrational people rise to the top, extreme ideas are normalized, and emotion overrides truth. "Their mental state is that of a collectively excited group ruled by affective judgments and wish-fantasies." Their delusional ideas, which hide their fanatical resentment, appeal to the irrational, "for they express all those motives and resentments which lurk in more normal people." "They are, therefore, despite their small number in comparison with the population as a whole, dangerous as sources of infection."

After the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded in January 1986, killing its seven crew members, President Reagan appointed a commission to investigate. Richard Feynman, already battling cancer and reluctant to join, accepted because a former student asked. He quickly grew frustrated with the slow, formal hearings and NASA’s optimistic safety claims (1 in 100,000 chance of failure). Instead, he talked directly to engineers, who revealed far higher risks. The night before a key televised hearing, Feynman bought a C-clamp from a hardware store. During the session, he took a sample of the rubber O-ring material from the solid rocket boosters, clamped it, and dropped it into a glass of ice water (mimicking the cold launch temperature that day). After a moment, he removed it and showed how the rubber had lost its elasticity, it no longer sprang back. He explained simply: at low temperatures, the O-rings couldn’t seal properly, allowing hot gas to leak and cause the disaster. His live demonstration cut through layers of management denial and became one of the most iconic moments in engineering accountability. In his personal appendix to the report, he famously wrote: “For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled.”

Jordan Peterson shared one of the most sobering statistics I’ve heard in a long time. The U.S. Armed Forces — after over a century of careful psychometric research driven by life-and-death necessity — will not induct anyone with an IQ below 83. They concluded that there is simply nothing in the military (at any level) that such a person can be trained to do without being counterproductive. Peterson noted that this threshold captures roughly one in ten people. And if the military’s complexity is even roughly comparable to broader society, that means about 10% of the population has no viable place in our cognitively demanding world. He emphasized that this isn’t about lack of money or short-term training. The data shows it’s extremely difficult to turn low cognitive ability into the kind of adaptive, creative problem-solving that modern society requires. It’s a raw, uncomfortable truth about human variation that most people prefer not to discuss openly. What do you think — is this statistic something society needs to confront honestly, or is there a better way to think about it?

The bizarre disconnect here is that all these people were once little boys! One has to wonder what they are truly thinking as they hear these words. It is a fine example of what i believe is one of our (human beings) greatest weaknesses....the abillity to rationlize what ever we want to justify not just the good but also the most perverse, the bad.

“Your diet is too expensive!” Meanwhile the average American wastes $612 every month on: • Fast food & restaurants: $280 • Coffee, energy drinks & soda: $50 • Snacks/junk food/candy: $40 • Amazon impulse buys: $100 • Unused subscriptions: $100 • Lottery/gambling: $30 • Tobacco/vaping: $12 That’s $7,344 a year (2024 BLS Consumer Expenditure Survey)... Plenty of "bread" to buy ground beef, eggs, butter, raw milk, fruit, squash, cheese, honey & asparagus. Don’t tell me you can’t afford healthy food until you’ve eliminated all these frivolous expenses first, my friends. 💰🥩

The sun was free. They sold you SPF 50 and a vitamin D deficiency. Sleep was free. They sold you an app, a pill, and a wearable that tells you your sleep was bad. Walking was free. They sold you a treadmill, a fitness tracker, and a £180 pair of trainers. Fasting was free. They sold you meal replacement shakes and the anxiety that skipping breakfast would wreck your metabolism. Cold water was free. They sold you a £3,000 plunge barrel and a podcast episode about it. Silence was free. They sold you a meditation app with a premium tier. Animal fat was cheap. They sold you seed oils, then supplements to replace what the animal fat contained. Tallow was cheap. They sold you a seventeen-step skincare routine and a clinical trial proving your face needs ceramides. Meat was cheap. They are currently selling you the idea that you shouldn't eat it. The 20th century removed access to everything the body needs to function. The 21st century is selling it back, one subscription at a time. Your great-grandmother had none of the products. She had all of the things.

@DineshDSouza Yeah, yeah.....and the world is flat!

Democrat PA State Senator Lindsay Williams just claimed: “Female bodies are just as strong and fast and capable as male bodies.” What do you think?

How the west came to accept lies as truth.

@PeriklesGREAT @gotrice2024 Fire!

Any advice for her..?
